Re: Whitefeather - OotS fancomic updated regularly

Britan, Britan, Britan!
Opened by the queen in 1972, Britan now attracts hindreds of visitores each year. But why do they come? Not just to discovor how chicken nuggets should really tast, or to take part in the great tredition of dogging... NO!
They come in their droves to meet the people of Britan! And it is them what we now here look at now today!

Re: Whitefeather - OotS fancomic updated regularly

I'm going to have to annoy Hyperfreak again, he's going to think I last updated in March

Anyhow, this strip hasn't took me as long as I thought, so I'm going to post it straight away. 4 comics in 8 days...boy I'm not going to be able to keep this up!

Anyhow, this is the first combat strip so far, the first chance you get to see how effective the team are etc. Now, one thing I've never been able to do very well is the sensation of movement, such as when someone is makes an attack or get's knocked back etc. I think I've managed to this to an extent in this comic, but any tips on how to do it better would be appreciated.

Anyway, here it is:

Strip 14 - Fight Scene: Take One

As always any comments, conjecture or criticism is welcome. It would be good to hear how people are getting used to the new art style, or whether it still hurts your eyes

Anyway...hope you enjoy, next strip will be up Thursday probably, could be earier but based on my track record I'm not saying so!

Re: Whitefeather - OotS fancomic updated regularly

I like the way you date your updates. It's always made more sense, in my opinion, to put the day before the month. To avoid confusion (I'm american), I usually write out the month though (3Dec07).

Also, you should always do what is easiest for you, before pandering to any one person. Anyone who truly enjoys the comic will stay as long as you don't stray too far from what originally got our attention in the first place. Even then some may stay, if the change is good for them.

Re: Whitefeather - OotS fancomic updated regularly

This comes from a country that spells colour and aluminium wrong, and replaces all s's with z's! I think I'll stick with the British way, what with being English and all

*clearing throat* Ahem... (Insert Bardic Knowledge Check here)

Aluminum

1812, coined by Sir Humphry Davy (1778-1829), from L. alumen "alum" (see alum). Davy originally called it alumium (1808), then amended this to aluminum, which remains the U.S. word, but British editors in 1812 further amended it to aluminium, the modern preferred British form, to better harmonize with other element names (sodium, potassium, etc.).

"Aluminium, for so we shall take the liberty of writing the word, in preference to aluminum, which has a less classical sound." -"Quarterly Review," 1812

Seems to me it was just a matter of wanting to sound grandiose, neh?

As far as Jaws is concerned, I suspect a rather nifty Familiar-Delivered Touch Attack spell might be in the works. At least, that is what I would do...

Re: Whitefeather - OotS fancomic updated regularly

hehe, cant wait to see the fight scene...it should be shocking to say the least. Also, american FTW !!! I find british english much more uptight...compare british english and american english like...paladin and bard...or something like that...
